Heera Whole Round Chilli 200g

£3.99

Prices checked

This 200g pack of Heera Whole Round Chilli is a useful size for a household that cooks curries and spiced dishes regularly, lasting through several weeks of everyday cooking. These are whole, round dried chillies, ready to use straight from the pack. They keep their shape and colour, making them easy to add to hot oil or ghee at the start of a dish, or to drop whole into a simmering pot. Whole chillies like these are a familiar sight in Indian and Pakistani kitchens, used to bring background heat and flavour without breaking down into the sauce. At home, they work well tempered in oil for dals, added to rice dishes such as pulao, or included whole in curries and pickles where a steady, mellow heat is wanted rather than a sharp burst. Cooks can remove the chillies before serving if a milder result is preferred, or leave them in for a stronger finish. Store the pack in a cool, dry cupboard away from direct sunlight, and reseal it tightly after each use. Kept this way, the chillies stay firm and usable for a good length of time, ready whenever a recipe calls for whole dried chilli.
